Where Time Stood Still

Classic villa near Como, Italy, surrounded by a large park

This couple wanted to live in the countryside, but both were working in different cities, Milan and Lugano. When this gorgeous classic villa came on the market, they knew they had found their dream home. Built in the 19th century, surrounded by extensive grounds, the new owners changed very little, since they appreciated the elegance and traditional atmosphere of this exceptional property.
